Objective: This article provides a systematic approach to performing a vaginal natural-orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) sacrocolpopexy (SCP) to create an anatomically aligned vaginal axis, an intraoperatively adjustable apical suspension, and variable compartment tensioning.
Methods: The technique presented for vNOTES SCP focuses on: (1) retroperitoneal tunneling; (2) direct sacrum access below the S-1 level, using uterosacral-ligament guidance; (3) transvaginal tensioning of the mesh to ensure both adequate vaginal length and cuff elevation using the DZOH apical-suspension technique; (4) circumvention of intrapelvic laparoscopic suturing; and (5) near-total peritoneal coverage of the mesh arms.
Results: This detailed description of a successful novel technique to perform vNOTES SCP was based on cadaveric experience as well as in live patients that is reproducible on living patients.
Conclusions: This apical suspension technique for vNOTES SCP may be a viable, reproducible, safe, and efficient transvaginal alternative to the commonly practiced minimally invasive approaches that involve abdominal-port placements. (J GYNECOL SURG 40:116).

Do instrument kinematics and the apical preparation limit influence canal disinfection and bacterial extrusion?
Odontology
January 2025
Department of Endodontics, University of Southern Santa Catarina (UNISUL), Palhoça, Santa Catarina, Brazil.
This in vitro research assessed the influence of the instrument kinematics (rotary and reciprocating) and the apical preparation limit on the root canal disinfection and apical bacterial extrusion. After 21 days of Enterococcus faecalis biofilm formation in 72 mesial root canals of mandibular molars, the root canals were distributed into 2 groups (n = 36) according to the systems used for preparation: ProDesign S and Reciproc. The groups were redistributed according to the limit of apical preparation (n = 11): (a) 1 mm up to the apical foramen (TL-1); (b) at the apical foramen (TL = 0); (c) 1 mm beyond the apical foramen (TL + 1).

Introduction And Hypothesis: We aimed to analyze the quality of sexual life of patients with apical vaginal wall prolapse who had undergone laparoscopic lateral suspension (LLS) and laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy (LSC).
Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of sexual outcomes of a previous randomized control trial comparing LLS and LSC in 89 women with symptomatic POP stage ≥ II. We evaluated sexually active (SA) and non-sexually active women (NSA) using the Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire-IUGA-Revised (PISQ-IR).
Use of a Vessel Sealer for Hysterectomy at Time of Prolapse Repair: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Urogynecology (Phila)
December 2024
From the Division of Urogynecology, TriHealth, Cincinnati, OH.
Importance: Electrosurgical vessel sealing devices for vaginal hysterectomy have demonstrated reduced postoperative pain. This modality, however, has not been evaluated in patients undergoing vaginal hysterectomy with pelvic reconstruction.
Objective: The aim of the study was to describe postoperative pain levels utilizing the LigaSure vessel sealing device for vaginal hysterectomy in patients undergoing major reconstructive surgery.
Porcine Airway Organoid-Derived Well-Differentiated Epithelial Cultures as a Tool for the Characterization of Swine Influenza a Virus Strains.
Viruses
November 2024
Wageningen Bioveterinary Research, 8221 RA Lelystad, The Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- Swine influenza A viruses (IAVsw) pose a health risk to both pigs and humans, showing varied levels of pathogenicity.
- Researchers created airway organoids from pig bronchus tissue to establish a model for testing the virulence of different IAVsw strains.
- In this model, the H3N2 strain caused more damage to lung cell structures than H1N2 or H1N1 strains, indicating the model's effectiveness for studying IAVsw virulence.

Article Synopsis
- Taibai Beimu (Fritillaria taipaiensis) is a traditional Chinese herb used for respiratory problems, but in 2022 and 2023, foliage issues such as yellowing and wilting were noted in a field in Shenluo.
- Infected bulbs displayed brown to black lesions, and fifty symptomatic bulbs were analyzed to investigate the cause of the disease.
- The analysis revealed similarities to the fungus Fusarium avenaceum, and various morphological characteristics and genomic DNA were studied to confirm this identification.
